Modifying UI Text in GSS Share Share via LinkedIn Reddit Email Copy Link Print On This Page This content applies solely to Government Source Selection, which must be purchased separately from the Appian base platform. Introduction Appian stores certain UI text for Government Source Selection's interfaces in bundle files, including: Labels Validation Messages Button Labels Tooltips Instructional text You may want to create a custom bundle file that overrides the values in the default bundle files. When you create a custom bundle file, GSS will retain the values during future upgrades. Note that some UI text is contained in reference data tables, such as dropdown lists. To modify this type of UI text, see Modifying Dropdown Lists. Source Selection bundle files There are two bundle files included in the solution: AS.GSS.General and AS.GSS.TMG. The AS GSS Properties Files folder in the AS GSS Knowledge Center stores the AS.GSS.General_default bundle file, which is for the Government Source Selection site. While the AS GSS TMG Internationalization Files folder in the AS GSS TMG Knowledge Center stores the AS.GSS.TMG.Tasks_en_US_default, which is for the Government Source Selection Settings site. You can use these bundle files to create a custom bundle file for your organization. Creating a custom bundle file To create a custom bundle file: Go to Appian Designer and open the Government Source Selection application package. Locate and open the GSS Bundle Files Folder; AS GSS Properties Files or AS GSS TMG Internationalization Files. Click on the bundle file in the folder you selected. Click Download file and open the file in a text editor. In this file, you'll see every key used in the application and the label that displays for each key. Identify the keys for the labels that you want to change. Edit each label that you want to change. Do NOT edit the keys. Save the file. Upload your file as a new document: Click New -> Document. Upload the file to GSS in the File Upload. Click NEXT. Name the file AS.GSS.General_custom or AS.GSS.TMG.Tasks_en_US_custom. In the Save In field, verify the correct GSS Bundle File Folder is selected. Click Create Document. These custom labels will now override the default labels and show up in the application interface for users. If any changes need to be made to this custom bundle file, download the custom bundle file, edit it, and re-upload it as a new version (not a new document). When you upgrade Government Source Selection, your custom bundle file will not be replaced or updated. Feedback Was this page helpful? SHARE FEEDBACK Loading...
